Definitions

  • Dental enamel is a thin, hard layer of calcified material that covers the crown of teeth.
  • the major mineral component of dental enamel is hydroxyapatite, a crystalline form of calcium phosphate.
  • Chemical erosion of dental enamel may arise from tooth exposure to acidic food and drinks or to stomach acids arising from gastric reflux.
  • the erosion of dental enamel can lead to enhanced tooth sensitivity due to increased exposure of the dentin tubules and increased dentin visibility leading to the appearance of more yellow teeth.
  • the salivary pellicle a thin layer of salivary glycoproteins deposited on teeth
  • Acids are also generated in the oral cavity when plaque containing cariogenic bacteria metabolize carbohydrates. Since plaque forms a barrier controlling the kinetics of proton and mineral diffusion through the enamel, plaque acids cause carious lesions. Incorporating fluoride ions in dentifrice formulations is the most common method to mitigate the effects of plaque acids. Fluoride reduces the rate of demineralization and enhances remineralization. Several approaches have also been developed to stabilize calcium phosphate salts or control the plaque pH to enhance remineralization .
  • partially hydrolyzed plant proteins e.g., partially hydrolyzed proteins from wheat, rice, almond, potato, soya, pea or combinations thereof, for example partially hydrolyzed cereal proteins (hydrolyzed proteins from grains of the family Poaceae, for example partially hydrolyzed wheat protein or partially hydrolyzed rice protein, are effective in repairing or mitigating the effects of dental erosion, promoting dental remineralization, and enhancing the anti-cavity effects of fluoride.
